[pkg-boost-devel] Bug#548270: Please provide a symlink to the current documentation.

Package: libboost-doc
Version: 1.39.2
Severity: wishlist

  Installing libboost-doc ensures that I always have the latest Boost
docs, but they move around with each new Boost version.  It would be
nice if there was a cross-link to give them a stable name, for instance
so that I could have a bookmark to
/usr/share/doc/libboost-doc/HTML/libs/libraries.html.

  I'd suggest this bookmark:

    # ln -s ../libboost1.39-doc/HTML /usr/share/doc/libboost-doc/

    Thanks,
  Daniel
